Files contain different character sets and data types.
Each data type has a unique format. The Print Format
list box allows you to describe what kind of data is in
the file. DECwindows then interprets that data, formats
the data, and prints the file.
A highlighted format in the Print Format box is the
default format unless you change it. The following
formats are available in the Print Format box:
Format Name Data Type Data Translation
